Potty Training at Dinner Table?

Have you as a parent had kids go to the toilet in bushes, on the side of the road and somewhere less than perfect. Well I have as it is hard to get to a bathroom at all times, especially travelling and with twins.

A woman has caused controversy over having her twin girls sit on potties at a dinner table in America. I know not good and terrible at the dinner table, and I agree that this is not on. I am not sure what the reason for her to do this was, other than the fact that the kids needed to go. Maybe she thought that she was on her own and it is easier to keep an eye on them at the table. However when I am out and about, most times I am on my own with the kids, I bundle both kids up and take them to the bathroom.  I need to have both girls with me to make sure that they are safe and all o.k.

You can be the judge of what happened. Check out the article on Baby Center and see the images that were taken by another diner at the restaurant.  I for one think that the mother should have taken the kids to the bathroom and not done what she did, but maybe that is just me. Tell us your thoughts.

Success x 1

Great news, one of my girls got up at the early hours to go to the loo (toilet). What a proud mummy I was, however after her mission to the bathroom she decided to go and get into bed with me and daddy. It was nice to get cuddles but I am definitely looking forward to having the bed to myself, no little body stealing the pillow at least.

My other little girl is not far off and it is so amazing. Both girls are doing so well. Soon no more nappies, and how good would that be. Yippee I hear you say, and yes I am saying it with you.It also got me thinking. My babies are not babies anymore, a sad thought. Although they will always be my babies, I am there mum of course.

Do you have twins? Have you found that one child is lasting longer with regards to going to the bathroom and the other is having more accidents. Sometimes it does switch so not always the same child. I am just finding it an interesting part of the development process.

I know both kids are different people and have a different timeline. All will sort itself out and I am not worried, just find it rather fascinating. Send in your comments.
